“Dr. Wu was so great. I was nervous to go in because I had completely given up on trying to find someone who would really listen and help me with my concerns. Dr Wu and her associates were all patient and friendly. Dr. Wu took the time to address my concerns and explain things to me clearly. She also answered all my questions patiently, gave me the recommendations I asked for and made me feel comfortable. I would highly recommend her and will be coming back for future appointments. ”

I am 75 years old and have found that lately my face is itchy with some redness. I went to see the dr. To determine what was going on - she told me that I am using too harsh products on my face and to change my products. She provided several samples which I will try for 2 weeks. Hopefully one of them will do the trick.

Dr Wu was sooooo kind and attentive. I had quite a bit of fear around the issues we were discussing and had been blown off by previous derms. She was compassionate and also helped alleviate my anxiety. 10/10 recommend.
